Laundry Bombing

Basically this involves riding your board with a hockey-sized duffel bag sitting on your board and a pack on your back both stuffed with clothes. You definitely have a lot more momentum to contend with and the balance is a little tricky. The street I take to the laundry mat isn't too steep but it is long and smooth so pick up a lot speed if you can tuck up. It makes carving very interesting.

i always wanted to gorge myself with red meat and pork rinds until i had a homer-simpson like figure (without the balding if i must) and see if my momentum would get me goin a little faster on these mellow hills. i'd try the laundry thing, but i don't have any hills on the way to any laundromats around here...i got a washing machine too (DAMN!

)so i guess it's back to raw porters, porkrinds, and cheap beer.

i've never transported my laundry that way, but i do regularly haul washers and dryers on my longboard. i find it's often a better way to move stuff around than a hand truck. i can usually ride it pretty well if i have a foot or so of tail to balance on. (no hills though)
